end his life rather than live UNI
der the faint OF dishonor. Tn young

who rushed into the store, and a physician
sent for 10 dress Nicoletti's wound.
MARITIME was evidently determined to kill
himself, for, getting away from those who
were guarding him until an officer could ar
rive, he seized a knife, and would have cut
his throat had it not been wrenched from
him. Thwarted in this, he seized himself by
the throat and tried self strangulation, An
officer took him to the station. All the way
along the street he begged the Of
ficer to kill him. He was placed
in q cell with several others,
but up to n late hour none of them had been
able 10 sleep on account of his raving. The
young man has evidently been drinking very
hard, or he is demented from sonc other
cause. He was asked to tell about the affair,
but gave way to tears, and falling on the
floor wcpt aloud. The only expression that
could be heard from him was, Il can't stand

RELIGIoUsFEATUREs OF THE DAY TO
BE WELL MAINTAINED.
st. Peters, st. Joseph's, Calvary, Grace
and the Strangers Churches Making
Strenuous Efforts for Good Music
The Other Churches Not Far Behind.


In Catholic and Episcopal churches Christ
mas tide is a season Of joyfulncss, and organ
lists and choir directors always seek to pre-
pare a special musical progam Of exceptional
merit. The organists in Memphis also have
this idea developed in their brains and have
made the necessary arrangements.
The principal mass at st. Peters Roman
Catholic church, corner Of Adams and Third
streets, begins at 8 o'clock am. The old
Christmas hymn, "Adeste Fidelcs," known
among Protestants as he Portuguese hymnb
will be sung as an introduction TO tho mass
proper.
The music Of the mass chosen by Prof.
Winkler for this occasion was composed by
Charles Wells. II is considered somewhat
difficult, but is SO handsome that 1t is quite
attractive, and the choir entered upon the
study of it with considerable zeal. The va
rious parts, choruses solos, duets and quar-
tets, will doubtless be rendered and inter
prctcd with the proper eNpresson and attcn-
ton to shading by the following ladies and
gentlemen composing 50. Peters choir:
Sopranos-Mrs. J. J.. Duffy, Misses Gene
We've Specht, Emma Jones, Tillic Smith,
Laura Thomas, Lizzie MCGrath and Grace
Prcstidgc.
Altos-Mrs. c. Ullathorne and Miss Blanche
Miles.
Tc~nors-Mcssrs. Hutton, Ritter and Bacr-
fuss.
Basses-Mossrs Ryan, Wright and safEa-
rams
Prof. Winklcr was singuiarly fortunate in
obtaining the assistance Of Mrs. g. Ullu-
thorne, with her magnificent alto voice; In
power and richness Of tone and quality she
has probably no equal In the United States.
Everyone DESTROYS Of hearing good music
well rendered should attend the early mass at
| St Peters ut . O'Clock AM. The church
will lie comfortably warmed. Another high
mass takes place NJ 1880 o'clock I'm, when
the same music will probably be repeated.
